Stories of the home circle Mrs. Norris has made peculiarly her own.
Whether the scene be laid in the parlor or the kitchen, whether the
character be mistress or maid, she writes with an understanding and
sympathy which compel admiration. In the present novel Mrs. Norris
chronicles the experiences of one family in trying to solve the
servant problem! What they do, with the results, not only provide
reading that is amusing but will be found by many who look beneath
the surface, highly suggestive and significant. As in all of Mrs.
Norris's work, the atmosphere of the home has been wonderfully
caught; throughout are those intimate little touches which make the
incidents described seem almost a part of the reader's own life, so
close to reality, so near to the everyday happenings of everybody
does Mrs. Norris bring them.
